Flame me for starting this, I know it might get religious. But: an organization of which I am a member is evaluating proposals to rebuild its website. One of those proposals is from some folks who apparently are partial to ColdFusion. All I know about CF is what I just picked up from skimming http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ ColdFusion. Recognizing my bias towards languages that I speak, I try to keep an open mind. I am interested in hearing what you guys think about CF. I know I can expect a PHPish bias in this forum but I also know there are a lot of independent-minded, non-dogmatic, clear-headed, breath-takingly wise and knowledgeable... have I flattered you enough yet?--
The only reason I could see for using coldfusion is that you have a site already written in it and you don't want to rewrite the whole thing in PHP. Maybe if the only other developers on staff only knew coldfusion? That might also be a good case. Other than that I don't see any advantages.
